The Bard is returning to Henderson with the return of the annual Shakespeare in the Park series.

The series opens Saturday with the performance of "The Comedy of Errors" by the Las Vegas Shakespeare Company at River Mountain Park, 1941 Appaloosa Drive.

The event starts at 6 p.m. with a Green Show by students from Green Valley High School. The play starts at 7 p.m.

The play is one of Shakespeare's earliest works. It features twins switched at birth, leading to mistaken identities and a lot of slapstick humor.

Residents will also get a chance to see the play at Discovery Park, 2011 Paseo Verde Parkway, Saturday, Oct. 12. It will also be performed Oct. 19 on the south shore side of Lake Las Vegas at 15 Cost Di Lago. Both performances started at 7 p.m.
